Digimon and Pokémon: Better together?

@BeachDude7PH I don't know if you're still interested in this since, yaknow, its been six days but it's been such a long time since I've done a free RP and I love both of these series. Questions though; 1, what's the limit on default form? Champion? 2, I feel like battling is one of the main things Mon do. WOuld it be possible for someone to be a sort of bounty hunter, tournament fighter, or something like that?

@Kafka Komedy

I still am!

1. It applies to Digimon only, so yeah, Champion at best until story asks for it up until Mega, the same as for the Pokémon who can Mega Evolve, with permission from Arceus.

2. If you're referring to how the Mystery Dungeon series works, it's all right. Unlike the other crossover RP I've checked out here that includes humans, mine is strictly only the 'Mons themselves until story asks for it.

Some mini-spoilers:

• A Shiny Rayquaza named Ryuuji is the first Pokémon President.
• Seraphimon for the Digimon, who also leads a council with other well-known Humanoids/Celestials.
• Marshadow's role will be as important as the story itself as 'The Visitor from Alola'.

Digimon and Pokémon: Better together?

Imagine the Digital World, and the (as of Generation VII) 7 Pokémon Regions, combined into a modern-setting world. And where the respective denizens live together in a world like humans do: One with each unique traits like given names, personality, sense of purpose and have lives.

@BeachDude7PH

Some things to consider, as the RP is set in a modern-day-like world:

• It'll be a utopia of both 'Mons (since there's no humans around just yet, maybe ;)), we'll have references to OTL/IRL stuff that are specially-made for the 'Mons (e.g. specialty conventions = Anime expositions/gatherings/meet-ups, fancy beverage store = Starbucks). And yeah, whether a DigiDestined to become a champion or a PokéTrainer who wants to be the very best like no one ever was, it does!
• Democracy-style Government, where there are two chosen leaders for each of them: Pokémon has Legendaries/Mythicals taking turns (Arceus doesn't have to lead all the time even if he's already their God, think a Presidential Adviser of sorts) while Digimon has the Humanoids/Celestials.
• Battles as much as possible, should be kept to a minimum or when a misbehavior threat strikes, resort to self-defense battle.
• For the purpose of the RP, both 'Mons will be speaking normally since I did imply in the OP about them having personalities and all.

Digimon and Pokémon: Better together?

Thought you meant a fusion of Digimon and Pokémon with Tamers/trainers using a combination of the two. *Sees you mean Anthro type stuff and bows out* I wish you luck on your endeavor thou

@Nuriko

Kinda anthro, if that's what you mean. But at least if you have suggested characters (either 'Mon), please don't be like those on Tumblr.

You have my interest, good sir/madam.

May as well say that my favorite Pokemon is Deoxys, and...huh. I'm not sure about my favorite Digimon.

I like most swordsman/knight-looking Digimon, but I'm actually leaning towards Magnamon or Beelzemon for my favorite.

@GarlandDaHero

I'm a sir

Excellent favorites!

Anyway guys, more to come about how would the RP play out after I do some personal stuff first...

Digital Pockets. - A Digimon:Pokémon Casual/Open Crossover Story

It's a bit...odd that you'd post an interest check thread and the main RP thread so close to each other, but oh well. I'll bite.

I may or may not get my character sheet(s) up at some point. Depends on what my schedule ends up looking like.

@GarlandDaHero

Apologies for replying just now...

Is that not allowed, I wonder? This concept is actually imported from AlternateHistory(dot)com's Role Plays, and there, currently, it's reduced to a fan fiction about certain 'Mons having friendly interactions. But I appreciate your sudden interest.

And sure, take your time! For now, the interest check thread is where it's at for now to recruit players.

Thanks and cheers!

Digimon and Pokémon: Better together?

Exactly what it says (or rather, asks) on the tin.

Imagine the Digital World, and the (as of Generation VII) 7 Pokémon Regions, combined into a modern-setting world. And where the respective denizens live together in a world like humans do: One with each unique traits like given names, personality, sense of purpose and have lives.

Also, to put the better 'Mon argument to rest, as both are better in their own right, you can be a fan of both, and most importantly, why have them battle each other when they're better together anyway!

I made my respective favorite 'Mons Tentomon and Poliwhirl to start up the big story.

Digital Pockets. - A Digimon:Pokémon Casual/Open Crossover Story

Given Name: Charles Marvin 'Charlie' Z. Kawena
Appearance, Style/Gender & Picture:

Charlie is a bipedal male Gloomdweller Pokémon that is usually gray. The area around his face resembles that of certain headgear such as a wrestler's mask or a helmet. The headgear can turn green when attacking or using his exclusive Z-Move. The bulbs on his arms can also turn green. He has orange eyes with golden yellow pupils. The spots above his eyes are the same color as his pupils. Charlie has two trails of shadows coming out from behind his legs. Furthermore, he wears his Z-Crystal specie namesake as a necklace that he never takes off.


Charlie, in his burning fighting spirit self.

Monster Specie: Marshadow
Nature: Bashful
Level Number: 50
Ability: Technician
Moveset of 4: Close Combat, Force Palm, Shadow Ball & Spectral Thief with Z-Move: Soul-Stealing 7-Star Strike
Bio/Personality & Quote: "Don't bore me out or lie to me unless you want my fists flying at your face." - Charles Marvin Zevo Kawena is a mysterious visitor from the Alola Region to do some soul-searching (not to actually steal others' but to find himself from within) and make new friends despite his shady and frightening appearance as a Fighting/Ghost type. He humbly considers himself a genuine Pokémon, and doesn't take sh*t from no one except himself. He admires both Kouji and Gray for what they are as both of different 'Mons and of different types, with Kouji being Electric and Gray being Water, not only for being true to themselves and their unlikely friendship.

Given Name: Kouji W. Hamada
Appearance, Style/Gender & Picture:

Kouji Wada* Hamada is a red and brownish green bipedal ladybug-like male Insectoid Digimon with four arms with grey talons at the end of the front pair. He has large, green eyes, mouth-like mandibles that doesn't move when he speaks, but does when he eats, and two yellow antennae reaching out from his head. His wing-case is covered with gray spines.

*Wada - In honor of Kouji Wada, best known for performing theme songs for several installments of the Digimon anime television series until he passed away last April 3, 2016.

Monster Specie: Tentomon
Crest: Knowledge
Digivolution Stage: Rookie
Attribute: Vaccine
Moveset of 4: Super Shocker, Talon Attack, Body Blow & Double Punch
Bio/Personality & Quote: "It's shockingly good to be smart! Tell me more about your interests!" - Kouji as a Tentomon lives his life geeking out on many kinds of things that most 'Mons don't do or don't have time to spare with. He's into specialty conventions and is a frequent visitor at such events that at times he only has money left for commuting back home despite having multiple but stable jobs like accepting his services as a tech expert/repair 'Mon, delivery/errand 'Mon, a bus 'Mon at a fastfood restaurant and many other things. He lives by his Crest in everyday life but sometimes can be a little too much, hence why he has only a few good friends he can count on, be it a fellow Digimon or a Pokémon, where most of his friends are, and one of them is his total 'bro', named...

Given Name: Gray N. Pinefield
Appearance, Style/Gender & Picture:

Gray Nyorozo* Pinefield is a blue, bipedal male Tadpole Pokémon with a spherical body. He has bulbous eyes that protrude from the top of his head. A black and white swirl covers his belly, which are actually his organs showing through his thin skin (and instead of being embarrassed, he's proud of it). He appears to have white gloves on his hands and rounded, digit-less feet, which are highly developed even for his size.

*Nyorozo - Poliwhirl's Japanese Name.

Monster Specie: Poliwhirl
Nature: Quirky
Level Number: 54
Ability: Water Absorb
Moveset of 4: Scald, Mud Shot, Mud Bomb, Bubble Beam
Bio/Personality & Quote: "I don't like assuming people, because it's making an ASS out of U and ME. But don't worry, I am indeed friendly!" - Kouji's best Pokémon friend. Their unlikely cross-monster friendship began when in an 'unfortunate' accident, Gray spilt his drink on his stuff in a fancy beverage store. Kouji took off his eyes for now at his stuff and helped out Gray but noticed that an unlikely snatcher 'Mon took away the former's devices. Both forgot their messy appearances and chased the criminal, and to their avail, they both got hold of him and put him behind bars. Being a good natured Pokémon that he is, he managed to give the suspect a lecture and eventually said his sorry to Kouji.

Which is better, Digimon or Pokémon?

IT'S TIME TO STOP, seriously. Both are better in their own right, you can be a fan of both, and most importantly, why have them battle each other when they're better together anyway!

This will be my first-ever RP here at RPGuild, so bear with me if I'm still getting used to how it works here, guys...

Digital Pockets.

A Digimon:Pokémon Casual/Open Crossover Story

This is an attempt of bringing the two 'Mon franchises together in a fun way, where there are no humans at all (not yet, maybe): Just both Digimon and Pokémon living together in a world like humans do: One with each unique traits like given names, personality, sense of purpose and have lives.

Any of the two 'Mons imaginable, whether it's from Digital Fresh to Mega (including the obscure Digivolution Stage types minus the merge with human partners) or from Pocket Bulbasaur to Marshadow (as of Generation VII/Alola, Legendary/Mythical or otherwise), the possibilities are endless!

Kamusta ka, po! ;D It's always good to see other Filipinos around.

@Fubsy

Yes, yes it is, kababayan!

Um, I'm a very Americanized descendant of a San Fernando and Laguna parents. I don't understand a word of our native tongue, unfortunately. I enjoy roleplaying from time to time. I also cosplay.

@Volenvradica

It's OK, mine is that mom's from Samar, dad's from Bulacan (then moved to Tondo), and I was born in Alabang (the currently living in Trece Martires City, Cavite), really wanna learn Waray (the family mostly converses in Waray except me who only speaks English, Tagalog and Japanese) when there's time.

And oh I wish I have enough resources and do cosplay too. :)

@Letter BeeWow great to see some more people! @Fubsy@Volenvradica

And to attract more fellow countrymen please put this into your signature so that people can see.

So do any of you have a certain favorite bands and or music back from home?

@Ayazi

Kamikazee will be missed. But I'm kinda diverse in Pinoy Pop/Rock, and I mostly liked the well-known ones (way better than listening to songs nowadays that are, dare I say it again...puro lang kalandian).

Filipino Hangout Thread

<Snipped quote by BeachDude7PH>

Hi BeachDude, welcome to the Guild and this thread! Whenever I go home I always regularly stay in Cavite.

Heneral Luna was damn good movie when compared to the typical cookie cutter love and comedy films that rehash the same things.

@Ayazi

Where in Cavite? And SM City Trece Martires finally has a confirmed opening day on its FB page: Friday; May 6th! The nearest one at the moment is in Dasmariñas.

Oh yeah, you've said it. Movies, even TV shows on either of the Big Three Networks, puro lang kalandian or walang katuturan at all. That's why at least I have 'Net (or connecting to WiFi) instead, watching anime or other good stuff to do in cyberspace. Yep, a Filipino DigiDestined, I am.

And @Letter Bee/DCM, these coming weekdays I may or may not be online (or chat on MeetingWords due to limited connectivity), not until Friday night or this DETERMINATION Saturday morning. Midterms in my Japanese class are soon coming up.
